Pre stretching the cable is the most underrated part of when you first install new wire, or first install a winch. Every time I install a winch, first thing I do is pull it out, leaving 3 wraps on the drum, and with some fairly decent tension on the line, re wrap the cable/line.
Great video, just what I needed. Thanks!!

Thanks Brian, a lot of good tips I didn’t know about. I’ve put cable on my dozers but this process is different. It’s always fun to watch a Fisher’s video.

Great video and tutorial. Winch rope is a lot safer too if it snaps.
Yes sir it is… thanks for watching buddy! 👍🏼
Like the dad I never had!
Well done video
Thank you! 👍🏼
Great video Brian, I also watched your videos on how important it is to stretch your new Synthetic rope. I just had a couple questions 1) can I park my jeep on a up hill, and use it as a anchor to pull my Maverick trail up to it, stretching my winch rope? and should I keep my SXS in neutral while I’m winching it up to my jeep and stretching the line at the same time to my jeep. 2nd question if I use my SXS to winch out a large rock or another SXS out a ditch again, should I keep my SXS in neutral, or maybe in park? while winching the rock out or the vehicle out, I don’t want to hurt the transmission. Thanks 🙏🏼 again Brian, as you can see I’m new to all this, I think you are one of the best with your knowledge and experience. God Bless.
Hey Tedd, welcome to the off road world buddy! It can definitely be overwhelming with all the info out there. If you did not see this video we did on stretching your winch cable be sure to check it out, WINCH BREAK IN | THIS IS A MUST BEFORE YOU HIT THE TRAILS...

I used my Jeep to do exactly what you are asking about. I left my RMAX in neutral while stretching the wire rope.
As far as your second question, if you’re using your machine to winch anyone or any objects out, I would recommend you stay in your vehicle with your foot on the brake and your tranny in neutral so you don’t put a bunch of torque on your tranny in park. You could also us an accessory kit to anchor the back of your machine to a tree or another vehicle if your machine starts sliding toward what your winching out.
Thank you for watching and for asking great questions! Keep in touch my friend and don’t hesitate to hit me up with any questions you may have… 👍🏼
Awesome video
Thank you and thanks for watching!👍🏼
Love the axon. Dont see any need for metal attachments on atv/utv applications. Should be all soft shackles and straps.
Newbie. I have apparently a WARN 2.5ci ATV Winch on my Kawasaki Brute Force 650 (KVF650E6F). I would like to replace the current cable wire. I see ton's of options on amazon that are NON Warn. Any recommendations would be appreciated for the Rope or a replacement winch with rope installed
Great video. Now, do I have to remove my winch from my side by side to install the synthetic rope?
No, you can do it while it’s on your machine. I just did it on the bench, so it was easier to see the install.
So, how much tension when spooling the rope onto the winch. I've got about 20 feet left that doesn't fit on the spool.
Not looking forward to splicing a new eye.
With my Gorilla wench, I had to switch back to the original metal cable. The damn rope was constantly getting stuck between the spool and the frame. Major PIA to undo.
Can you load more rope lon the drum, verses the wire rope?
No, it's the same length as the wire rope.
Can you do an install on the hardwired remote part number 64259? I think you’ve done a lot of installs on the wireless hub remote. Could you do one of the hardwired remote?
Let me look in to that and see what unit I can install it on, stand by… 👍🏼
Great video. I have a warn 3700 winch, takes a 7/32 cable can I change it out and use a 1/4 synthetic rope? Thanks.
Not sure about that, I don’t think Warn ever made a 3700?
@@FishersOffRoad Hi, I purchased it about 14 years. Warn updated it to 4000 series winch.
Nice video 😃👍🏼 Cheers, Bjørn
Not even sure what you’re referring to… 🤔 Thanks for watching though…
sorry, youtube skipped to the next vid in my line while i was writing😖 Thanks for the Instruktion, I'll have to change my rope soon 😅👍🏼
@greyknight05 oh, I got ya, lol 👍🏼
@@FishersOffRoad Max I ask a question? This time really to your vid 🤣
Some synthetic ropes do come with a sleeve to protect the first lines of rope on the drum against friction-burning. Is this a problem to bigger/higher loads or is this a general problem to sinthetic ropes?
I'd have a 3to Landcruiser on the cable and would like to avoid that problem.
Can I do this to my old warn winch? It’s a 9.5ti and looks pretty old but still works great. Would I need any other parts or are they pretty much the same setup? Thank you in advance.
It should be the same concept, I’ve done it on both truck and PowerSport winches.
@@FishersOffRoad
Thank you for the prompt response.
Rookie to winches, what is the meaning of "stretching out the rope" Do you pull it out and then pull something with the winch to put load on it. thanks
Yes sir, here’s a video for you that explains it better. WINCH BREAK IN | THIS IS A MUST BEFORE YOU HIT THE TRAILS...

is there a different puck for different lines ?
No, same puck for all of them on the ATV, UTV winches.
Can I upgrade the length of the rope from say a 50' to a 95' ? Right now I have a 50' on my Warn Winch.
I would stick with the 50’ that Warn recommends. Adding more rope will change everything as far as gearing and if you should happen to stack to one side or the other you’ll cause major damage to the winch. Warn sells a 50’ extension rope in case you need more during your recovery.
@@FishersOffRoad Ahhh so stick with the 50'; and if I need the rope longer, just use the extension for that moment. Ok that makes sense... Thanks for the reply, because I was back and forth about buying a longer rope , yet the temporary extension makes more sense 👍
where can i buy only the puck?
You can contact Warn Industries at 800-543-9276 and they’ll be happy to help you out.
I am going to guess, since a I haven’t bought rope yet, that the black piece shown initially is a tube that the rope is then inserted into, right?
Yes, it’s a sleeve protector for the rope. In case you’re winching over anything abrasive you put the sleeve on it and the rope slides through it and protects your rope from abrasions.
@@FishersOffRoad thanks much
You bet, let me know if you have any other questions.
Holy cow that little "puck" is what holds the rope in? sheeesh
That’s why you need 5 wraps on the drum when you pull your rope out.
I think you don’t have enough electrical outlets 😉
Don’t worry, we’re adding more soon. 👍🏼
Could have left the rollers on
As long as the rollers are new, you can’t use rollers that were used for a wire rope or the burs will ruin it. Or you can sand the rollers really good to get them smooth.
I just had a synthetic line melt and literally destroy itself after only using the winch one time .. I’m going to steel cable.. I realize I’m a minority but if the synthetic line isn’t anymore durable than that I don’t want it ..
That’s very odd, I’ve been using synthetic ever since it came out and have never had that happen. 🤔
Winch was at about half capacity if that on straight line pull .. had to move about 3 times to get him off the sand in the dirt so he could move under his own power .. last time I went to pull the rope out out I noticed it was extremely hot even so it was getting uncomfortable with gloves on.. then I noticed what looked like flat melted spots on the line .. and. I did respool it under load when I got it .. but yeah my old winch had synthetic line but it never behaved like this
Same thing happen to me.
Please provide the manufacturer of the ropes that melted, would like to change to rope, but want to avoid manufactures that have sub-standard product. Like wise does anyone have recommendations for a proven synthetic rope that is not melting. Thanks.
I’ve been using Warn synthetic ropes for years and have never had a problem with any of them. We use them on our ATVs, side-by-side, pick up trucks, and they always hold up.
